  • (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016
    Bolton Residential Expansion Study (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016 The purpose of this memorandum is to review the professional literature pertaining to the potential develop- ment of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in the Bolton Residential Expansion Study area, in response to the Region of Peel’s recent release of the Discussion Paper. The Discussion Paper includes the establishment of evaluation themes and criteria, which are based on provincial and regional polices, stakeholder and public comments. It should be noted that while the Discussion Paper and the Region’s development of criteria does not specifi- cally advocate for TOD, it is the intent of this memorandum to illustrate that TOD-centric planning will not only adequately address such criteria, but will also complement and enhance the Region’s planning principles, key points and/or themes found in stakeholder and public comments. In the following are research findings related to TOD generally, and specifically, theMetrolinx Mobility Hub Guidelines For The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (September 2011) objectives. Additionally, following a review and assessment of the “Response to Comments Submitted on the Bolton Residential Expansion Study ROPA” submission prepared by SGL Planning & Design Inc. (March 15, 2016), this memorandum evaluates some of the key arguments and assumptions made in this submission relative to the TOD research findings. Planning for Transit-Oriented Developments TOD policy and programs can result in catalytic development that creates walkable, livable neighborhoods around transit providing economic, livability and equitable benefits. The body of research on TODs in the United States has shown that TODs are more likely to succeed when project planning takes place in conjunction with transit system expansion.

  • Guildwood GO Station Construction Update
    Lakeshore East Corridor Guildwood GO Station Construction JUNE 2016 Metrolinx, an agency of the Province of Ontario, is working to transform the way the region moves by building a seamless, convenient and integrated transit network across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). Over the next ten years, Metrolinx is transforming the existing GO rail system to deliver a whole new rapid transit experience to your community. With more frequent train service you’ll have more options to get you where you need to go. THE LOCAL PROJECT – PEDESTRIAN TUNNEL SLIDE Metrolinx is working to make major upgrades to Guildwood GO Station to make it easier and more convenient to access the station. This work supports future 15 minute, two-way all-day electrified service that is fast, frequent, and reliable for residents of the Guildwood community. Thank you for your patience during the overnight drilling work. The next major step in construction is sliding the new pedestrian tunnels under the rail corridor. This work will occur over two weekends in July: Friday, July 8 at 8:00 p.m. to Monday, July 11 at 5:00 a.m. and Friday July 22 at 8:00 p.m. to Monday, July 25 at 5:00 p.m. The new pedestrian tunnels will be wider, longer, have improved lighting, and elevators which will enhance access and safety.

  • Underground Power Line Crossings at Guildwood Station Summer 2020
    Lakeshore East GO Expansion Construction Notice Underground Power Line Crossings at Guildwood Station Summer 2020 Information as of: August 4, 2020 Today, if you live in Oshawa, Toronto, or anywhere in between, you enjoy two-way, all-day service seven days a week. We’re going to take it up a notch. With GO expansion on the Lakeshore East line, we’re bringing 15-minute two-way service between Union Station and Oshawa. Faster, more frequent travel is coming your way. Forget the car – welcome to your future. What Work is Taking Place? At various locations along the Lakeshore East Corridor, we are starting to remove overhead power lines and move them underground. As part of this project, there will be power line work underway at Guildwood GO Station starting Friday, June 26 for approximately 8 weeks. Work hours will be during the daytime 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. What to Expect The work will be on the far west side of the GO Station on both sides of the rail corridor (see orange sections in diagram above showing approximate location). Work will involve underground drilling and excavation to construct a conduit for the power line underneath the corridor. Customer parking on the south-west lot will be impacted while this project is underway. Residents will experience typical construction noise and vibration during the work hours. Questions If you have any questions or concerns or would like to be included on future email communications from us, please do not hesitate to email us at [email protected].

    Understanding Factors Associated With Commuter Rail Ridership A Demand Elasticity Study of the GO Transit Rail Network by Aaron Shantz A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2021 © Aaron Shantz 2021 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that this thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Mode share in major North American cities is currently dominated by private automobile use. Planners have theorized that transitioning commuter rail systems to regional rail networks is a viable method to increase ridership and stabilize mode share. This process is currently underway in Ontario, Canada, as the amount and frequency of service is being increased throughout the GO Transit rail network via the GO Expansion Program. However, previous studies have shown that transit demand does not solely respond to service quantity expansions. Variables related to the built environment, regional economy, network characteristics, and socioeconomic status of the customer base can influence transit demand to varying degrees. Further, the literature states that the travel behavior of commuter rail users is unique, as access mode, distance, socioeconomic status, and the utility derived from varying trip types can differ compared to local transit users. These findings suggest that supplementary policies might be needed to reduce automobile reliance and stimulate demand for regional transit. Many transit researchers have conducted demand elasticity studies to identify what factors are significantly associated with transit ridership.

C M Y CM MY CY CMY K In addition to the high level of integration between HVAC, lighting, and security systems, building sustainability demands other technological and supporting elements that will endure over the long term. At Reliable Controls, we provide nine important elements to help you create true building sustainability—now and into the future. One of these elements demands the use of technology that minimizes waste over its life cycle. Today’s technology is often paired with a cavalier attitude about product life cycle. Vendors like Reliable Controls who are committed to sustainability understand that carefully engineered designs and meticulous component selection result in devices that endure for the long term. Reliable Controls provides comprehensive repair and responsible disposal services that extend your return on investment and minimize waste—even if our products have been in the field for decades.
